The Normalisation of Deviance

The Public Square

This is an article from 2016, currently discussed on Hacker News. Striking things to me:

  1. this applies not only to flying or engineering but to moral issues too…
  2. the world has even a name for it! Isn’t it weird that Christians warn about normalization of unbiblical behaviour only to be rebuked but when it comes to direct life-or-death or your-money-is-gone scenarios, they accept the line of argumentation?

Very interesting. Even more interesting that had the author spoke of the most insidious deviants, the normalization police would no doubt put him into a nose dive.

I listened to the article on Pocket yesterday, and I loved his story. I thought the application was a little weak, though.

I take it from his obvious avoidance that he’s from some nation that arrests people that speak truth.
